I bought Live 9 last year, after many years of Cubase and Pro Tools. I still use those 3 DAWs. PT is for postproduction mixing. For music writing, Cubase and Live have different workflow that drive my creativity in different ways. I think both have their place for my needs. Live has powerful tools to manipulate audio clips and samples. Cubase has chords track (ok, I’m kidding). Cubase has a lot more to do with in a more linear way.
What helps me to dig into Live, I looked some good tutorials (on Lynda and Groove3) to understand the basis.
Anyway, there’s no need to like both, it could be just another tool in your bin.
